I proposed PR 9277 to remove the test: see the PR for the rationale. > Neither socket.py nor test_socket.py have changed recently though, so it seems to me that this is either a recent Fedora bug (where the socket is blocking when it shouldn't), or else a Fedora change that has uncovered a latent defect in the socket module code. IMHO it's a change in the implementation of the RDS protocol in Linux, likely in the kernel.
